Member News: THREE60 Energy and COMS Energy Announce Strategic Alliance to Provide Industry-Leading Commissioning Services

THREE60 and COMS Energy are pleased to announce a strategic alliance aimed at delivering industry-leading Pre-Commissioning, Commissioning and Completions services. This initial three-year agreement will cover the oil and gas upstream, midstream, and downstream sectors, as well as energy transition industries.

The alliance complements and enhances the existing capabilities offered by THREE60 through its Engineering, Procurement, Construction & Commissioning (EPCC) service line.

By bringing together their respective expertise, the companies will partner to leverage the combined experience and capabilities. THREE60 have a successful track record in providing commissioning services to oil & gas customers in UK, Africa and the Middle East while COMS Energy, through its parent company, provides a strong track record of delivery and growth in highly regulated nuclear industry.

The companies present this offering to the market both as a standalone support service and as part of an integrated EPCC offering. This demonstrates a commitment to providing flexible, agile and responsive services, enabling the companies to react and successfully respond to customers varying demands for support throughout the project lifecycle and guaranteeing seamless transition into the operating phase.

This agreement addresses a gap in the market, where there is a perceived lack of options for robust, efficient and delivery focussed commissioning support. The expertise of both companies will open opportunities for international expansion and access into new sectors. Several projects have already been successfully delivered together, all of which have been well received by customers. In recent years, THREE60 and COMS Energy have formed a strong working partnership and this agreement formalises the commitment of both companies to bring their existing industry connections and relationships to the partnership.

Alasdair Smith, Managing Director of EPCC at THREE60 Energy said, “This strategic alliance leverages the strengths of both companies, combining COMS Energy’s credibility and heritage with THREE60 Energy’s robust EPCC service line. Together, we are poised to address cross-sector commissioning challenges and deliver unparalleled value to our clients .”

Cliff Woodman, Chairman of COMS Energy said, “We are delighted to enter into this strategic alliance at a time of significant growth for both our companies, and we look forward to building on our already successful relationship with THREE60 Energy. The combined synergies, and reach back to niche capabilities, bring an extremely attractive offering to the benefit of our clients.

Get in touch

AREG is the original energy transition organisation, working on behalf of members to empower the energy supply chain and champion its expertise. Please get in touch if you have any questions or would like to find out more about membership.

AREG has played an important role in the growth of Scotland’s renewable energy sector, engaging the supply chain and developing the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. However, we are only at the very beginning of the transition that AREG was established to both lead and support so there are still opportunities for companies to get into the constantly evolving renewables supply chain. We look forward to continuing our work together as renewables builds on its place as Scotland’s main source of power, and as we seek to deliver real change in the crucial areas of heat and transport.

Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce has worked closely with AREG since its formation. The recent progress in the developments of offshore wind projects by Equinor and Vattenfall are as a result of the work of the group over many years. The north-east is known as the oil and gas capital of Europe. At the Chamber, we believe the region must evolve its position to being recognised as the energy capital. Whilst hydrocarbons will continue to be essential in driving our economy for years to come, the generation of renewable resources will play an increasingly important role in providing cost-effective power, innovative development and economic growth.

The enthusiasm and dedication of the early group that would become AREG was fundamental in us choosing to launch All-Energy in Aberdeen. The first tiny show was held in 2001, and AREG’s Chairman at the time, Jeremy Cresswell, played such an active role that I often describe him in terms such as All-Energy’s ‘midwife’. All-Energy is now the UK’s largest renewable and low carbon energy exhibition and conference in terms of number of attendees, space booked, and number of exhibiting companies. As AREG became firmly established, their presence and support for the event grew spectacularly over the years. We thank them most sincerely for their invaluable input.

Vattenfall has forged a strong working relationship with AREG through the development of the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. AREG has worked tirelessly on behalf of the North East and it can take enormous credit for the growth of sustainable energy in the region and the path it has cleared for the region to capture further investment.

Aberdeen City and Shire is emerging as a key location for renewables by successfully transferring its world-class oil and gas expertise into the sector and AREG has done much to advance this through a broad range of initiatives. It has acted as a catalyst in driving further investment in the local economy by engaging with companies, Government, public bodies and existing projects and we have been pleased to support their efforts. Scottish Enterprise will continue to engage with AREG as we increase Scotland’s use of renewable energy.
